According to Alex Epstein, a host of prejudices are
responsible for the false idea that fossil fuel usage is harming the planet. Alex
avers that, in fact, fossil fuels are a boon to mankind and will continue to be
so far into the future.
In this book, Epstein takes the arguments of the
environmentalists apart and shows that they are false. He offers an alternative
argument that reveals the value of fossil fuels in the full context of their
history and the benefits they provide. Fossil fuels, in his estimation, are the
cure for a poor environment and the cause of man’s flourishing.
Throughout the book, Alex drives his case home, through
facts, statistics, charts and logical arguments. He concludes that the
environmentalists are not only misguided, but they are also engaged in a war to
destroy progress, society and human success. They refuse to see the “big
picture” when it comes to the value of fossil fuels.
This book is destined to be a turning point in our understanding of fossil fuels. Through Alex's careful argumentation, it provides the full context that the environmentalists ignore. Alex informs us that if man is to have a future, he must embrace fossil fuels.
